We get it constantly and yet I have only seen one article that explains it clearly and accurately. Ruth Davidson has tried to explain it but she gets shouted down for supporting the "abhorrent rape clause". What I don't get is what is abhorrent about allowing Benefit to be claimed for a child conceived in exceptional circumstances?  I cannot believe that I am the only one who has taken the trouble to look at the legislation, the forms, the Guidance and the manifestos and pulled out the facts. As I said the media has a lot to answer for.PS The election leaflet I received from my local SNP MP consisted of non stop sound bites about "Tories" in various guises and yes the "Tory rape clause" was in it too along with "hard brexit" and "extreme brexit" numerous times. I want a local MP who lives here and is prepared to work for the good of the community rather than spouting inaccurate abuse.</blockquote>
